Hi everyone,
phpBB Group announces the release of phpBB 2.0.16. This release addresses
some bugfixes and one critical security issue. To fix this, please apply
the following change: In viewtopic.php
Find:
$message = str_replace('"', '"',
substr(@preg_replace('#(>(((?>([^><]+|(?R)))*)<))#se',
"@preg_replace('#b(" . str_replace('\', '\\', $highlight_match) . ")b#i',
'<span style="color:#" . $theme['fontcolor3'] . ""><b>\\1</b></span>',
'\0')", '>' . $message . '<'), 1, -1)); Replace with:
$message = str_replace('"', '"',
substr(@preg_replace('#(>(((?>([^><]+|(?R)))*)<))#se',
"@preg_replace('#b(" . str_replace('\', '\\',
addslashes($highlight_match)) . ")b#i', '<span style="color:#" .
$theme['fontcolor3'] . ""><b>\\1</b></span>', '\0')", '>' . $message .
'<'), 1, -1)); If your mail program wraps the lines it is advised to get
the fix from the official announcement at:
